Birds in Paradise


Adrenaline junkies only
1768 Mei Place
Kauai, HI 96746
United States
+1 808 822 5309
http://www.extremekauai.com
Owned and operated by a former professional hang glider, this business caters to daredevils, adrenaline junkies and other people with no fear whatsoever of flying. The adventure begins on the ground, but shortly moves to hundreds of feet above sea level, and that is just the beginning! You and the instructor will "soar like a bird" above the cerulean seas of Kauai. If you like it, there are full training courses available. If you have doubts, do not worry: After ten years, the business has a flawless safety record and the approval of the FAA.

Kauai Backcountry Adventures


Fun in the air and in the water too!
Hanama‘ulu Junction, off Highway 56
Kauai, HI 96715

Make your way to this establishment located off Highway 56 in Hanama'ulu. Choose between Backcountry Zipline and Mountain Tubing tours—the first has you dressed up in a swimsuit, sitting in a tube (you read that right!) making your way through streams and canals. The second option will make you feel the wind beneath your wings! You harness yourself with a rope that extends from a mountain to a valley across water bodies and trees. Then you simply descend at the most rapid speed possible, aided by gravity! The tours are offered in an area of 17,000 acres, formerly occupied by plantations.
